Lesson 1 July 6, 2014 Volume 26 The Celestial Light of Deliverance and Knowledge Is In You Devotional Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:34-45 It is always important to realize and remember that we are not just earthly human beings with a physical body full of mortal limitations. Every atom, molecule, cell, tissue, and organ of our physical body receives life from the spiritual body that was created in the image and likeness of God. Our bodies communicate with extra-terrestrial forces of life and all creation to maintain a high quality of survival. God placed an electronic and spiritual system of chemistry, biology, and psychology in our souls and bodies that is capable of constant healing and positive longevity. The soul and body must be protected from the unreliable conditions of the world that rob us and strip us from our true originality. We must master the art and business of being translated out of the life of Adam into the kingdom life of the resurrected Christ. Based upon the reality of over 400 years of slavery in the Gentile dispensation, our ancestors suffered from the loss of the genetic substance that protected them from disease and short life spans. Being stripped of their true original culture, knowledge, and identity caused them to live like animals in a corrupt contaminated world. Therefore our terrestrial bodies must be trained to receive wisdom, knowledge, and understanding from the celestial consciousness that thinks with the Christ mind. The conditions of high blood pressure, diabetes, strokes, heart attacks, cancer, and premature death cannot assault a person that is able to overrule the human nature of the first Adam. Celestial-minded thinking causes us to process our thoughts and elevate our minds into the consciousness of the last Adam, where ignorance, lack of knowledge and selfdestruction does not exist. As long as we lack the true knowledge of self and miss out on expanding in the knowledge of God, the world will continue to treat us like savages and define us as worthless creatures. Our highest priority is to function from a heavenly mind and avoid living from an earthly mind that inherited unhealthy conditions from the slave masters and tricked us into living with no purpose and no divine destiny. The Everlasting Gospel was revealed in 1897 to raise the consciousness of God's people and establish a new world, where human plantation knowledge and the kingdom gospel will be replaced by an overflow of triumphant celestial knowledge. The religious knowledge of the kingdom gospel is too limited to satisfy us with what we really need from God. So we must advance into the divine understanding that is able to quicken our minds with regenerative power and reverse and prevent the causes of aging, sickness, suffering and death. Lesson Scripture: Psalms 139:7-14; Philippians 3:20-21 Lesson Outline: I. God Created you to be Wonderful and Marvelous. (Psalms 139:7-14) One of the greatest causes of physical decline and loss of life is using the wisdom of the world to manage a body and soul that God created. Our souls have access to the knowledge of everlasting and eternal life, but we have to make a super conscious contact with the life center of the Christ mind in order to receive that knowledge. Sin and ignorance makes the carnal mind create sickness and declining health in the earthly body. Righteousness and triumphant life in Christ is the only way to comprehend the spiritual knowledge that unlocks the reality of II. body redemption. Through the power of prayer and spiritual meditation, our bodies can experience the perfection of a divine mind where the life-giving words of truth can quicken us and cause us to live as long as we desire. The knowledge of being created in the image and after the likeness of God must become an illumination in our souls and bodies through the Everlasting Gospel. Then we will be able to turn our earthly body into a celestial body made of flesh, bone, and Spirit and leave the limitations of flesh and blood behind us. A Change Is Going to Happen Very Soon. (Philippians 3:2021) Heaven is no longer understood to be a place where we go to put on gold slippers, white robes, two wings, and streets paved with gold. Heaven is the highest level of Christ consciousness where we find ourselves in harmony with the thoughts, revelations, and principles of the true and living God. Our conversation in heaven confirms the statement that Jesus gave in John 10:30 that says, "I and my Father are one." When we properly adjust ourselves to the kingdom of God that is already on the inside, then we will be able to demonstrate a great change that will consume our terrestrial bodies with the spiritual power of our celestial bodies. When our vile bodies are redefined and reconstructed into a glorious body, we will experience a body that is completely made of spiritual substance, eternal health, and everlasting glorification. Every thought of our minds will be pure spiritual substance and we will no longer be subject to physical and mortal laws that support sin and death. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus will be operating in our entire being and there will be no more corruption or mortality. To Think About Let the word, power, and anointing of the Christ mind travel through every system and central location of your physical body. The abiding consciousness of the Holy Ghost will also quicken every cell, atom, and molecule of your physical body and give you a celestial revelation about yourself. Revealed Verse: I don’t just believe God created me to live and not die, I know He created me to live on and on.

White Devotional Reading: Romans 8:1-8 The mind or consciousness is defined as the “seat of all thought and memory housed in the human brain”. It contains all of our emotions, perceptions, imaginations, and will. The mind is also said to have 3 levels—Conscious, sub-conscious, and super-conscious. The conscious is the “here and now” mind responsible for logic, calculations and all actions that are performed while you are awake or aware. The subconscious is the “save it for later” mind that stores all of your previous life experiences, your beliefs, your memories, your skills, all situations you've been through and all the images you've ever seen. For example, when you learned to ride a bike or drive a car, you can now do it automatically, without thinking about it. The subconscious mind also controls other functions in your body like breathing and heart beats. The super-conscious mind is the “universal mind”. It has two aspects; the first aspect is that it is infinite intelligence that governs the whole universe (GOD). The second is that it is the collective consciousness of everyone and everything that exist in all levels of reality, sum of all minds that are in existence. It is in the superconscious mind that we can hear God! It is the state of “super-consciousness” that we experience an extraordinary transport in the depth of contemplation or “elevated” consciousness. If we would elevate our minds above the flesh and carnal thinking, we would hear and see clearly the things that God has prepared for those who love him. When our minds are in a low or polluted estate, we cannot hear or see God, it is like being in a football stadium and the cheers are so loud that you can’t distinguish one voice from the other. If we really want to hear from God, we must tune out everything that is not like him and tune in (elevate our minds) to the universal broadcast of God. Hear what the spirit is saying to the church. The whole goal and purpose for the Super Conscious mind is so that we might cast down all imaginations and everything that exalts itself against the knowledge of Christ and bring “every thought” of our mind to the obedience of Christ. Very few people operate in the super-conscious mind, because in this mind the flesh does not exist! Lesson Scripture: Colossians 3:1-3; Ephesians 6:10-18 Lesson Outline: I. Elevate Your Mind to Super-Consciousness. (Colossians 3:1-3) “……Tune in and listen there’s a universal broadcast going on”, in other words God is speaking and we must tune in, or rather elevate our minds, to hear what the spirit (God) is saying to the church (me). God is always speaking, but we are not always listening because we do not lift our minds high enough to hear the voice of God. We miss his voice when our minds have too much interference and static, that is, we listen to everything else, but God. We don’t have an ear for him because we are too focused on gossip, garbage, problems, situations, and circumstances. These things pollute our minds and deafen our ears so that we are unable to hear what the spirit is saying. If you truly want to hear and see what God is saying and doing, you must elevate your mind! If we then have risen with Christ, which is a privilege— that is, have benefited by union and communion with him are justified and sanctified, and shall be glorified. We must seek those things which are above. We must mind the concerns of the spiritual world more than the concerns of the carnal world. We must make God our scope and aim, seek the favor of God, keep up our communion with God by faith, hope, and agape love, and make it our constant care and business to secure our title to and qualifications for the inheritance of eternal life. We should seek and secure what he has purchased at so great an expense (his life). We must live such a life as Christ lived here on earth and lives now in eternity, according to our abilities. II. Satan Cannot Enter the Super Conscious Mind. (Ephesians 6:10-18) We must guard our minds by putting on the whole armor of God, that no part be naked and exposed to the enemy. It is called the armor of God, because he both prepares and bestows it. We have no armor of our own that will be armor of proof in a trying time. Nothing will enable us to stand, but the armor of God. This armor is prepared for us, but we must put it on; that is, we must pray for grace, we must use the grace given us, and draw it out into act and exercise as there is occasion. The armor of God is the Word of God! The Super Conscious mind is the mind of Christ, and where he dwells, Satan cannot enter. Remember Satan was cast down from the heavenly (high or above) places, therefore when we elevate our minds to superconsciousness, he cannot enter, his access was revoked a long time ago. Spiritual warfare consists of struggling against evil forces in our minds. The Bible is clear that this is not a battle which is fought on a physical plain at all, but rather a spiritual one. For we fight against the opposition of the powers of darkness, and with many enemies who would keep us from God and eternal life. Who are these principalities, powers, rulers of darkness and such? They all stem from Satan's kingdom, but since Satan is not omnipresent (can be everywhere at once), he works through a network or an army of demonic spirits. We must tap into the SuperConscious mind where the arms of sin and death cannot reach us. To Think About In order to change from the conformation of this world, we must change the way we think; in order to pull off mortality and carnality, we must change the way we think; in order to see, hear, and become God’s true image, we must change the way we think!? We can only have the super-conscious experience when we endeavor to abstract our thoughts and affections from the flesh and carnality, and be completely under the influence of the Holy Ghost. Revealed Verse: Elevate your mind to super-consciousness!
